Globular Cluster UVIT legacy Survey (GlobUleS) III. Omega Centauri in Far-Ultraviolet

Deepthi S. Prabhu, Annapurni Subramaniam, Snehalata Sahu +21

We present the first comprehensive study of the most massive globular cluster Omega Centauri in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) extending from the center to ~ 28% of the tidal radius usi…

Searching for young runaways across the sky

Marina Kounkel, Aidan McBride, Keivan G. Stassun +1

We present a catalog of 3354 candidate young stars within 500 pc that appear to have been ejected from their parent associations with relative speeds of >5 km/s. These candidates h…

The thermodynamics of stellar multiplicity: dynamical evolution of binary star populations in dense stellar environments

N. W. C. Leigh, N. C. Stone, J. J. Webb +1

We recently derived, using the density-of-states approximation, analytic distribution functions for the outcomes of direct single-binary scatterings (Stone & Leigh 2019). Using the…

SpaceHub: A high-performance gravity integration toolkit for few-body problems in astrophysics

Yi-Han Wang, Nathan Leigh, Bin Liu +1

We present the open source few-body gravity integration toolkit {\tt SpaceHub}. {\tt SpaceHub} offers a variety of algorithmic methods, including the unique algorithms AR-Radau, AR…

Stellar collisions in flattened and rotating Pop. III star clusters

M. Z. C. Vergara, D. R. G. Schleicher, T. C. N. Boekholt +4

Fragmentation often occurs in disk-like structures, both in the early Universe and in the context of present-day star formation. Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are astrophysical…

Spin misalignment of black hole binaries from young star clusters: implications for the origin of gravitational waves events

Alessandro Alberto Trani, Ataru Tanikawa, Michiko S. Fujii +2

Recent studies indicate that the progenitors of merging black hole (BH) binaries from young star clusters can undergo a common envelope phase just like isolated binaries. If the st…
